To The People Who Are Always Injured
Kaylee Adamek

Most people play sports throughout their childhood. Even if they didn't, they managed to hurt themselves in some way, shape, or form. As a child, and even now, I've always been so accident prone. I've tried everything to keep myself from getting hurt, but I've never been able to stay completely accident-free.

Every time I'm doing something, I almost ALWAYS get hurt in some way, shape, or form. I almost always seem to say "ouch" about everything, even if it doesn't hurt. I struggle to keep myself from getting hurt, but no matter how hard I try, I manage to hurt myself. I'm always in the barn so there's always some sort of way that I'm going to get hurt. I walk into walls, I walk into people, you name it. I walk into almost anything that is put in front of me.

I try to keep myself from getting hurt, and my friends do too. We try to keep chairs pushed in and keep the floors clean. The only problem is, no matter how hard we try, I ALWAYS END UP GETTING HURT IN ONE WAY OR ANOTHER. I know I'm not the only one out there in the world that has this problem. Some people get hurt because they're clumsy. Some people get hurt because, well, they aren't the smartest person in the world. Some people get hurt because of "bad luck." Some people, like me, just don't really pay attention to what the hell they're actually doing and where they're going. I'm usually too busy talking to someone, looking at my phone, zoning out, etc. and I usually almost collide with people, walls, poles, buildings, you name it. I don't think I could be any more prone to getting hurt.

As much as I get hurt, I've only ever broken one bone. It just so happens that it was a knuckle in my middle finger on my left hand. And before you ask, yes. It was involving a horse. I try my best to keep myself from getting hurt. I'm constantly cleaning things up or moving things to another place. I don't know how I always manage to injure myself. I promise that I really do try, but it just doesn't work out the way I want it to. My boyfriend doesn't have sympathy for me anymore when I get injured and honestly, I don't blame him. I get hurt way too often and my poor boyfriend has to deal with it all (but he's the best for putting up with me and all of my injuries!).

To those of you out there who always get hurt, join my party and wrap yourself up in bubble wrap. It's so much more fun and, believe me, so much safer. Let's all wrap ourselves in bubble wrap because why not! Stay safe, everyone!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
